Wait, it does work! I'm just to stupid to live. Guess you have to put the
"set textsize" into the query that actually gets executed, not a test one
that's commented out. Oops.

Now that everything is up and running under TDS 7.0, I'm having one last
strange problem. In my SQL Server database, I'be got a "bit" field with
"Allow NULLs" checked off. When I attemnpt to include this field in a
SELECT query, something is spitting out the following in my Apache error_log
file:

Attempting to convert unknown source type 104

Anyone know if this is FreeTDS or DBD::Sybase?

Thanks again,

- Darryl
